What About Love?

In YA especially, who doesn't love a good romance? My sci-fi trilogy has a love triangle, which even becomes a love quadrilateral at one point (if we're talking in shapes). Love is what coming of age is all about, isn't it? Figuring out our place in the world, who we are as people, and consequently, the types of people we love. But more importantly, what is revealed about ourselves as a result of the types of people that we choose to love.
